Embroidered Uniform Guard: I Can Plunder Talents Chapter 372 - 99: Diamond Prajna! Consecutive Talent Upgrade

Originally, Xiao Yongning thought that with so many prisoners, keeping them alive for two or three months shouldn’t be a problem.

But now?

Don’t even ntion two or three months—even half a month hasn’t passed, and they’re all gone. The speed is kind of alarming.

The whole Imperial Prison is practically marinated in the stench of blood, though the place never slled good to begin with.

"Most of the inmates from the nearby towns and county yan are already gone; only so from the remoter counties are left!"

It’s not like we can’t transfer them over.

It’s just that the journey’s long, so it’ll take more ti.

"No problem!"

Of course, Ye Liuyun wasn’t about to bla Xiao Yongning over sothing like this. Besides, Ye Liuyun had been very satisfied with how Xiao Yongning handled things lately.

After waving a hand,

Ye Liuyun simply said with easy confidence,

"Just take your ti transferring them. I can afford to wait a little."

"Yes, sir!"

Xiao Yongning couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief.

She’d been worried Ye Liuyun would start pushing, but there was nothing she could do—she couldn’t fly or teleport prisoners here.

"Please rest assured, sir. I’ll make sure the prisoners are transferred over as soon as possible!"

The journey was long, and with that many people, it would surely take at least ten days, maybe half a month.

"Good!"

Ye Liuyun simply nodded.

He didn’t say anything more and left the Imperial Prison directly.

Once Ye Liuyun was gone, Xiao Yongning called her people over to clean up the Imperial Prison, and then led everyone out for a al.

Because the prisoners had been cleared out again,

Xiao Yongning just gave her subordinates a few days off to rest. After all, another big batch was coming soon.

Xiao Yongning wasn’t about to treat her people like cattle.

"Thank you, ma’am!"

"Finally, we can get so real rest!"

"This is great, hahaha!"

"Tomorrow I’m sleeping in till noon!"

"Hahaha!"

Just a word from Xiao Yongning and her people instantly burst out cheering.

Seeing this, Xiao Yongning couldn’t help but smile too.

At the sa ti, she started daydreaming inside: maybe her own good days were just around the corner.

...

"Imperial Prison?"

Nightti in the Imperial Palace.

Yan Fuhai’s bedchamber lay deep within the palace, a place almost no one paid attention to.

This was Yan Fuhai’s own request.

He declared formally that since the throne now belonged to Yan Shuzhu, there was no need for the Supre Emperor to make a show of things. Finding a quiet place to live out his days in peace was just fine.

But honestly?

Yan Fuhai was suffering the agony of Destiny Retribution.

This obscure spot had the weakest luck, and Yan Fuhai, gifted at sensing the flow of Heaven and Earth, had chosen it at a glance.

Only in such a forgotten corner could the pain from Destiny Retribution be dulled sowhat. Even if the suffering still existed, less was better than more.

Still...

Even like this, Yan Fuhai could know everything happening outside.

The ones who drew his attention, besides Fu Zhengqing and Yue Xiu, were Ye Liuyun.

Why?

Ye Liuyun’s cultivation had risen too rapidly. Even from hearsay, Yan Fuhai could tell the man was blessed with exceptional luck. His leaps in cultivation totally defied the norm.

Even having reached the Land Immortal realm.

Yan Fuhai was suspicious by nature. He wouldn’t kill Ye Liuyun outright, but he’d definitely have him investigated.

And when Wei Hongfang reported in,

telling him Ye Liuyun had recently been camped out in the Imperial Prison, doing nothing but watching convicts be tortured to death,

If Wei Hongfang hadn’t brought the news himself, Yan Fuhai would’ve thought he was being lied to.

"Are you sure Ye Liuyun has stayed in the Imperial Prison all this ti, watching the prisoners die right in front of him?"

"How would a servant dare lie to His Majesty!"

Seeing Yan Fuhai questioning him,

Wei Hongfang didn’t dare hesitate and imdiately knelt down.

"And I’ve heard, the Embroidered Uniform Guard has been transferring prisoners from other counties to the Imperial Prison—not for anything else, just to have enough convicts to execute in front of Ye Liuyun!"

"..."

Sure, masters with high cultivation all have their quirks, maybe so eccentricities.

But soone like Ye Liuyun... Yan Fuhai really hadn’t seen this before.

"Could it be he’s just so psycho with a twisted mind?"

In Yan Fuhai’s reckoning, Ye Liuyun didn’t seem like a fool; there must be so calculation behind his actions.

But these thods...

No matter how much he wracked his brain, Yan Fuhai couldn’t fathom what Ye Liuyun might be planning.

Seems like, apart from being psychologically warped and enjoying watching people tortured to death, there aren’t any other possibilities.

After all,

There was no way Yan Fuhai could’ve guessed Ye Liuyun was "cheating".

"Forget it!"

He waved a hand.

Unable to understand, Yan Fuhai stopped bothering with the issue.

He was now convinced Ye Liuyun was just psychologically twisted.

"I never would’ve thought that the most unimpressive daughter would turn out to have such an eye for people!"

The only reason he’d put Yan Shuzhu in power back then,

was simply because she was the least remarkable. Yet unexpectedly,

Her unremarkableness was only a disguise; he hadn’t seen through it at all at the ti, and had underestimated Yan Shuzhu.
